My immediate thought is that it is Red Dead Nettle (Lamium purpureum), but Henbite (Lamium amplexicaule) also looks pretty similar.

Warmest regards

It looks rather like Lamium maculatum.

Kind regards,

Hello

Thank you so much for the feedback.

I found a key at http://michiganflora.net/genus.aspx?id=Lamium which is as follows:

All four species are natives of Europe, two of them known in cultivation and the other two weeds.

1. Corolla ca. 19–26 mm long, the tube curved upward; plants perennial; leaves acute and all petioled.

2. Corolla white, the upper lip ciliate with long hairs (at least 0.5 mm) and usually pilose above as well; terminal tooth of largest cauline leaves prolonged or ± acuminate, often 9 mm or more long.      L. album

2. Corolla pink to purplish [albinos rare], the upper lip with hairs less than 0.5 mm; terminal tooth of largest cauline leaves less than 9 mm long.    L. maculatum

1. Corolla ca. 9–19 mm long, the tube straight; plants annual; leaves acute to rounded in outline, all or only the lower ones petioled.

3. Leaves subtending flowers sessile, ascending or at most horizontal, slightly broader than long (± reniform in overall outline).   L. amplexicaule

3. Leaves subtending flowers short-petioled, reflexed, the blade about as long as broad or a little longer.    L. purpureum

I am not able to nail down the ID of my plant based on this key. Would it be possible to arrive at the correct ID based on my photographs?

Thanks and regards

Alka Khare

Thanks, Alka ji,

Based on the keys, I will go for Lamium purpureum rather than Lamium amplexicaule if the Corolla is ca. 9–19 mm long
